Prepare a thread and a form to contact the police.
I will do that once I have adequate information on him,in India,they call it filing an NC [Non Cognizable offence -> Means police officer has no authority to arrest without warrant]. I can simply walk to the nearest Police station and file one.I'll definitely ask the OP to provide me in writing about the case and definite proof.I will have to submit those two documents along with their forum information.Since I can pull some Cyber Crime contacts in the nearest branch,they will consider my NC on the priority basis.
Does this mean jail time if Joel can pull through?
Not sure about the Jail time but he's definitely going for a one night treatment so he can admit to the crime.Even if he comes out on a bail,his career would still be messed up considering he has a Case on him.I don't wish something bad for him but he should pay the OP back.
Do you want any help from me? I can send you all the skype conversation, the address I sent the money from. he confirming receiving and not delivering.
